Church

Covenant Life Church was founded in 1977 in the basement of one of its first members. I didn't join the story until two decades later, moving here from Oregon in 1997. I'd be happy just to be here as a member and raise my family in this community. I honestly can't believe I get to serve here as a pastor. In the fall of 2004, I assumed the role of senior pastor from my dear friend and mentor, CJ Mahaney, who served heroically in this role since the church had begun 27 years earlier.

If you live here in Gaithersburg and are looking for a church home, please come check us out. If you're visiting the area, we'd love to have you stop by!

A Brief Review
"I think this book [Sex is Not the Problem (Lust Is)] would appeal to both teenagers and parents, although I would give the parents the book first to read. This is not explicit in its language but it does tackle the difficult questions." (Read full post here.)
